Dragon Warrior Monsters 2: Cobi's Journey is a role-playing game for the Game Boy Color released in 2001. It features a monster-collection mechanic similar to Pokémon, with exclusive monsters available in its counterpart title. Players capture and train various creatures while exploring a vibrant world. The game was later bundled with its predecessor for PlayStation and remade for the 3DS in Japan.
Dragon Quest Monsters 2 followed Pokemon's strategy of releasing 2 games with exclusive monsters that would need to be traded between versions to collect them all.
The games were later re-released along with the first Dragon Quest Monsters as a compilation for the PlayStation and the games were later remade for the 3DS, but only in Japan.
